Thanks for the review.

neg can go away.  There was a time when operator names weren't used, and I added them to make client code more natural.  I've removed neg () and updated neg (overflow) to match the style of operator -().

The cast is completely unneeded, so I removed it.  sdivmod_floor was of the same class, so I removed it as well.  These two uses of reinterpret_cast are a bit different from the rest of them.  I'll see about addressing the remaining ones in a followup.
